The cleanliness was good, everything was nice the environment. On the other hand the staff were rude, every question we had they looked at me like I was crazy, made me feel dumb. They don’t have hot water or ice after 8pm. I had inquired about late check in and I payed a lot of money for a specific room. They ended up giving me a room on the main floor, only a couple door down the lobby, it was nothing that I asked for. They wouldn’t give me a refund either. I got the most basic room and that’s not what I PAYED for. In the mornings it was super loud due to construction being done outside and we were put couple doors down the lobby. I’ve stayed at better hotels, better pricing, and a better room. Totally regret giving them my money. The pictures online are cat fished nothing looks like the pictures which I think is a scam. Never again.

They have a cancellation fee and refuse to change your stay date to another day. They blame Expedia travel. They need a credit card now for your stay. The lobby is an obstacle course to get through because they too much furniture. It’s not inviting at all. They need to get rid of half of it.
